WE LANDED ON THE MOON

Sometimes I like to drop random movie references in everyday life to see if anyone responds to me. I just yelled We Landed On the Moon, as I walked out of a colleagues office after hearing about a good result on her case. Unfortunately, no one got my reference. In fact, it seemed like people were physically upset by how happy I was with myself.

Sadly, I don't think I have had a successful obscure movie reference in quite some time. I think the most recent one wasn't even my own, but one I picked up on from someone else, which also feels good. It's like giving a mental high five. It was "Ninja Vanish" if anyone cares. Props to Reizen for making that one happen.

Don't get me wrong, there are times where I get to be on the receiving end of the mental high five. The Insane Bride has been getting better, but there is always the chance of the "False Positive" where I say something truly witty and she automatically assumes it came from a movie, and is incredulous that I could come up with it on my own. Ahh the pitfalls of having a vast expanse of obscure movie knowledge, and an occassionally witty line. Isn't it possible that sometimes I might say something witty? Don't answer that.

On the Insanity front, Shaun T made me his bitch again this morning. I wish I could bottle how exhausted I feel at the end of each workout and somehow retrieve it when approached with delicious chocolate covered pretzels at work, in the vain hope that it would somehow prevent me from lifting my fat hand and sampling the pure bliss that is the medley of sweet chocolate and savory pretzel. Alas, I am only human and when push came to shove I was down in the muck with the rest of them, fighting for my piece and disregarding any Elite Nutrition Plans I had for the day.

In conclusion, pick up on my obscure movie and tv references and stop offering me sweets. The world will be better off as a result and I will be eternally indebted to you as a friend. I don't ask for much.
